Abstract: An emph{incompatibility system} (G,mathcalF) consists of a graph G and a family mathcalF=FvvinV(G) over G with Fvsubseteqe,einE(G)choose2:ecape=v. We say that two edges e,einE(G) are emph{incompatible} if e,einFv for some vinV(G), and otherwise emph{compatible}. A subgraph H of G is emph{compatible} if every pair of edges in H are compatible. An incompatibility system (G,mathcalF) is emph{Delta-bounded} if for any vertex v and any edge e incident with v, there are at most Delta members of Fv containing e. This notion was partly motivated by a concept of transition system introduced by Kotzig in 1968, and first formulated by Krivelevich, Lee and Sudakov to study the robustness of Hamiltonicity of Dirac graphs. We prove that for any alpha>0 and any graph H with h vertices, there exists a constant mu>0 such that for any sufficiently large n with ninhmathbbN, if G is an n-vertex graph with delta(G)ge(1frac1chi(H)+alpha)n and (G,mathcalF) is a mun-bounded incompatibility system, then there exists a compatible H-factor in G, where the value chi(H) is either the chromatic number chi(H) or the critical chromatic number chicr(H) and we provide a dichotomy as in the K"{u}hn--Osthus result. Moreover, we give examples H for which there exists an mun-bounded incompatibility system (G,mathcalF) with ninhmathbbN and delta(G)ge(1frac1chi(H)+fracmu2)n such that G contains no compatible H-factor. Unlike in the previous work of K"{u}hn and Osthus on embedding H-factors, our proof uses the lattice-based absorption method.
